The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl

Half an hour later, several important officials from the court came and knelt down and cried bitterly when they saw the emperor...

The emperor slowly opened his eyes and said in a low voice: "My dear ministers, there is no need to cry... I have something important to entrust to you..."

Concubine Jia said, "Since your majesty has something important to say to the adults, I will take my leave first!" Then she said to the third prince, "No one, you stay here to accompany your father!"

She wanted everyone to hear the emperor passing the throne to his son, and then she would leave on purpose to avoid suspicion...

The emperor said weakly: "Okay, my beloved concubine, please go out first!"

Concubine Jia bowed respectfully and said, "Yes!"

After saying that, he turned around and went out.

……

An hour later, Concubine Jia stood up from the couch in a somewhat irritable manner, thinking anxiously: Why is it that after so long, there is still no letter? Normally, it should be over after just reading the imperial edict and giving a few instructions. Did something go wrong in the meantime?

Just when she was feeling anxious, the little palace maid Yiran ran in in a panic, "Madam, something terrible has happened! There are so many guards outside!"

Concubine Jia was so nervous that she stood up, but after hearing her words, she heaved a long sigh of relief, sat down again, and frowned, saying, "What's the big deal! Let them in!"

She knew that the throne must have been passed to someone else, so the ministers sent someone to take her away, so she sat upright on the couch and acted like a queen dowager.

A moment later, the guard leader Shao Xian came in with a few confidants and said with a sullen face, "Empress Jia, the prince wants you to come over!"

Concubine Jia stood up calmly and said with a smile, "Okay." After that, she followed Shao Xian out of Yuhua Palace.

But she didn't know that once she left, she would never be able to come back!

……

When Concubine Jia walked into the imperial study, she suddenly felt that the atmosphere was not right. She couldn't tell exactly what was wrong, but she suddenly had a feeling that something was wrong!

The expressions of the several regent ministers were very serious. They did not show any respect or joy from the empress dowager. Instead, they all had stern faces!

Especially the King of Huainan, who looked at Concubine Jia with no warmth at all! It was as if he had never known her...

Concubine Jia came to the bed and knelt down, saying softly: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!"

The emperor opened his eyes upon hearing the voice, glanced at Concubine Jia who was kneeling on the ground, and whispered, "Fifth brother, please read the imperial edict..."

"Yes!"

After bowing, the King of Huainan stood up, took the imperial edict from the eunuch beside him, and said loudly: "Empress Jia, listen to the order!"

Concubine Jia hurriedly whispered, "I accept your order!"

"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims: Imperial Concubine Jiang has behaved improperly, has a vicious heart, has repeatedly violated palace rules, and has offended the Emperor... Now the Emperor authorizes her to commit suicide by drinking poison! This is the Emperor's decree!"

After the King of Huainan finished reading, he said in a deep voice: "Did Concubine Jia hear clearly? His Majesty has ordered you to drink poison to commit suicide!"

Concubine Jia stood there in a daze, unable to react for a moment!

When she heard the first sentence "bad behavior, evil heart", her mind exploded!

What! Didn't the Emperor want to promote her to Imperial Noble Consort to assist the throne when there was no one left to inherit it?

Concubine Jia, who was secretly happy in her heart, was stunned by this sudden and huge change!

She stared blankly for a long time, until the King of Huainan handed the imperial edict to her. Then she woke up from her dream and shouted, "No! Your Majesty, I am innocent!"

Then, without caring about anything else, she came directly to the emperor's bed and cried, "Your Majesty, have you made a mistake? I have always been careful with my words and actions, and have never made any mistakes. How could I have behaved improperly and offended the emperor? I have already explained to you about the meeting with the eldest prince in the imperial garden in the middle of the night! It was the eldest prince who tricked me there, and I didn't promise him anything... Why are you still punishing me for this? Your Majesty, please say something!"

While crying loudly, Concubine Jia secretly said in her heart: "It seems that I didn't put enough earth dragon gall! If I had known this would happen, I should have let him go to heaven directly! As a result, I was confused for a moment and shot myself in the foot! Now, the position of empress dowager was about to be in my hands, but now I have to go to the underworld to be the empress dowager! Where is this child Wu Ren? Why can't I see him? I must find him! Maybe I can still be saved..."

Just as she was thinking of a solution quickly, the King of Huainan ordered, "Come here! Take Concubine Jia away!"

"Yes!"

Two guards came in, picked up Concubine Jia and were about to walk out. She struggled desperately and said, "How dare you! I am the imperial concubine, who dares to touch me!"

After that, she burst into a sad voice and said, "Your Majesty, how can you be so cruel! Wu is still young and cannot be without a mother to take care of her. It doesn't matter if you kill me, but aren't you afraid that the Third Prince will hate you?"

Duke Meng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty! The Third Prince will not know the truth! He only heard that Your Majesty and His Majesty were deeply in love, and now that His Majesty has passed away, he has also passed away in grief... This not only preserves the dignity of the royal family, but also avoids hurting the Third Prince's feelings for His Majesty. It can be said that we kill two birds with one stone!"

After hearing this, Concubine Jia was stunned!

She never expected that the emperor, who was always so praising and kind to her, could be so scheming!

Could it be that he already knew that I had poisoned the soup to kill him?

Did a maid in the palace leak the news?

Concubine Jia quickly thought of a solution in her mind. She would not just sit there and wait for death!

After a moment, the King of Huainan said, "Your Majesty, please come in!"

Concubine Jia glanced at the cup of poisoned wine, and suddenly an idea came to her mind!

She frowned and said, "You can let me die if you want! But you have to agree to two conditions... First, I want to see my brother Jiang Yaonian before I die. Second, I want to be buried as an imperial concubine."

Duke Meng said: "I'm afraid this won't work..."

When Concubine Jia saw that he was against it again, she couldn't help but frowned impatiently and asked, "Why?"

Duke Meng said calmly, "Your Majesty may not know yet? His Majesty did not pass the throne to the Third Prince."

"what?"

After hearing the news, Concubine Jia felt as if she was struck by lightning!

This news was more shocking to her than the death penalty...

She stared at Duke Meng with wide eyes and shouted, "This is impossible! The emperor only has one son, Wu Ren. If he doesn't pass the throne to him, who else can he pass it to?"

Lord Liu on the side said: "Your Majesty may not know yet? The Emperor passed the throne to the King of Huainan..."

This time, Concubine Jia was even more shocked. She looked at King Huainan in disbelief and said, "Why? Why didn't you pass the throne to your son, but to your brother? You must have taken advantage of the emperor's critical illness and teamed up to deceive him! No, I want to hear it from the emperor himself!"
